INSIGHT
My earliest fascination with art came from my great uncle Jesus Preciado, an artist whose work was commissioned by the Catholic church. My uncle painted Byzantine style icons, using traditional methods. I am also transfixed on Jose Posada’s graphic work as well as Orozco, and modern masters such as Anselm Kiefer, and Francis Bacon.
I continue to explore the subconscious.
